The Election Hat

Hatters report good trade the past few
days. Why is it that when men back I'D
their opinions concerning the results of
elections they nearly always do SO by
wagering new hats? Can it be possible
that the hatiers slyly started this custom
tor their own selfish ends? Why not bet
silk handkerchief. or pair of shoes. or
a dozen pairs of stockings? Another
peculiar thing about the hat betting bus
mess is that the men who lose the hats
are nearly always in sorry need of new
hats Themselves On the other hand the
hat-winuers are usually supplied. They
have one or two good hats to begin with
and when their wagers are paid-if they
ever sre-they could walk down street
with whole shelf full of nice. new hats
on their heads. But rs a matter of fact
hat-wa2ers are not always paid. "Whv,"

MODES Of CELEBRATION

This sacred festival has been termed
the queen OF festivals; il has been obs
served from the beginning. and is ccIe
brated IN every part of the Christian
world With great solcmuity aud devotion.
Formerly the churches were oruainentcd
with large wax candles. and the Chris
tians saluted each other with a kiss, aud
and the words Christ is Risen" TO
which the response was made He is
Risen Indeed" THIS custom is still re.
tanned in the Greek church. In nearly
all Christian countries the re ,urrence
OF Easter has been celebrated with var,-
Gus ceremonies, and popular sports and
obserVanceS. Among the best known is
the practice of making presents of coll
ored eggs, called pasch or pace eggs,
which were often elaboratelv ornament
ed. Children used colored eggs at Easter
in game which consisted of testing
the strength of the egg shells. and this
practice is continued to some extent. la
some parts of Ireland the legend is cur
rent that the sun dances 10 the sky Oh
Easter Sunday morning. The game of
bali was favorlte Easter sport in which
municipal corporations formerly engaged
with due parade and dignity. aud at
Bury st. Edmund's within few wears,
the game was kept up with great spirit
by twelve old women.
In the northern countries of ENGLAND
the men parade the streets on Easter
Sunday, and claim the privilege of lifting
every woman three times from the
ground, receiving IN payment kiss or
silver six pence The same is done by
the women to the men on the next day.
EASTER SERVICES
An important feature of the Easter
observance in the three cities, will be the
Sir Knights service, to be conducted at
Grace cathedral Davenport, al 2 O'clock

Erred by the [ eelslnture.

Mr.. II. S. Garfield, who represents the
San Antonio Express, at Austin, and Is
responsible tor the matter sent TO that
paper, In regard to the proceedings OF
the legislature, ap earring In that paper,
was upon motion Of Jones and Pamela by
vote of 81 to "a excluded from
the reporters table and hall and
the sergeant of-arnls instructed to
deny him admittaDce. The ground
for this action was that he had "refieot-
ed upon the intelligence, patriotism. de.
cency and manliness of the twentieth
legislature" and that his communion
ton in Sundays Express Twas culmi-
nation OF faIsehOod, indeoency and :
portOrial mendacity. and base abuse OF
the privileges extended by the house to
the representatives Of the press"
Mr.. Garfield did not want to be
bounced, but when the vote was
taken he retired smiling. And there's
more fun In store.
The Austin Statesman sizes up the
matter accurately when 1t says:
Mr.. Garfield Did wrong aud acted I'M
justly in thus happening the legisla-
Iure. The Express did wrong in pub

The Western Settlers Chosen Specific

With every advance of emigration into the
far west, new demand is created for Hostel
ter's Stomach Bitters. Newly peopled r. gions
are freque tly less salubriOus than older sci
tied localities, on account OF the miasma
which rises from gently cleared land, par
tcularly along the banks of rivers tuat are
subject u freshets. The agricultural or min
ing emigrant soon learns, when he does not al
ready know, that the BItters afford the only
sure protection against malarial, and those
disorcers of the stomach, liver and bowels, to
which climate changes, exposure, aud unac-
customed or unh athy water or diet subject

on this great household specific and proven
tive commensurate with Its intrinsic merits,
and is careful to keep on hand restorative
and promoter of health so implicitly to be re-
lied upOn In time OF need.

CRANFnL has taken the logical and
necessary steps toward which his posi-
tlon on prohibition tends. Prohibition
is an assault on individual, personal lib
erty. The assault on religious liberty
follows as consequent, where it does
not precede as cause. The attack on
the Catholic church, or some other, is
the sequel to all attacks on personal lib
erty and action. Liberty of conscience
and liberty of conduct are married, and
no sophistry OF the prUhibitionists, or
any others, can divorce them.

A WONDERFUL PHENOMENON.
The Celebrated "Walking Mano and
why He Keeps GOlug-A Warm
In

At Mill Grove. Ind, lives John Snider,
the "Walking Man In 1884 he felt muscu-
lar and nervous exhaustion, a strange rest
lessness, general uneasincsS, and the only
relief he could get was by constant walking.
For twenty-eight months he has tramped in
a circle around and around his house, rest
ing only four hours each day. and il is esti-
mated he has covered more space than the
circumference of the globe. He has at
tracted universal attention, been visited
by hundreds of curiosity seekers, and
has really become public character His
nervousness has shown itself in walking;
other peoples nervousness acts in other
ways. Sometimes the person is rest.
less, trembles, has nervous head.
aches, sinking at the pit of the stomach,
a loss of appetite, inability to sleep, fore
bodings, and general exhaustion. At other
times irritabillty, peevlshness and fault
finding are felt and life is fearful
trial. When these things come on some
thing must be done, or this nervousness
will lead to insomnia. insanity, or death.
Many people take morphine, opium, or mar
cotics; but they only deaden the nerves for
the time being. What people need is to as
sit Nature a little, and Nature itself will
restore the nerve-tlSSue and bring health
and strength. The best researches of
modern scientists have proven that there
is nothing for this purpose equal to pure
spirits, and no spirits so reliable and Valu-
able as Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey An
authority on this subject, being no less than
the well-knOwn DR.. Caldwell, who treats
only nervous diseases, says:
In typhoid and nervous exhaustion I know Of
10 remedy to approach or equal Duffy's Pure
Malt Whiskey TO bridge over a crisis or mend
the broken cup OF health in an emergency of
immediate danger. This may be said OF alcohol
in general, We're it not the fact that many OF our
WHISTLES are so sophisticated. These impuIit 8
are in the Duffy's Pre- Malt Whiskey entirely
absent thus afording pure and safe stimulant

All people have nervous exhaustion at
times, but only those who are careless per
nit it to continue. When it does continue
it runs into the worst known troubles,
which make life a burden and death a re-
lief. People who allow this are alone to
blame for il is comparatively easy to over
come, and can be absolutely controlled. By
the use of the pure stimulant (but not in.
tOXicant) above named, these fearful things
may be avoided, and health and happiness
succeed to sickness and misery.

SENATOR BURGESS in opposing the pro-
hibition amendment resolution, svows
the fidelity fthe democracy to the slit
tie jug" and says, "You may as well at
tempt to run the Bsptist church without
water, as to attempt to run the demo-
cratic party without whisky" IL would
naturally follow this declaration, that
republicans In Texas should work to cut
of the whisky supply. This, however,
cannot be done by a prohibition dam.
The prohibition OF whisky selling in
Texas at this date means free whisky
and increased taxation for municipal,
county and state expenditures.

CALIFORNIA seems TO think, with some
other sections of the country, that the
election of the United States senate by
direct voice of the people would be an
Improvement. as sffording less oppor-
tunity to corporations to control cleo
lions to that body. II this should be
done can there be any good reason adj
duced why the senate should not be
abolished altogether AS now constl-
tuted the house Of Representatives rep
resents the people by whom it is cleo
ted; the senate represents the state, and
the state government, being elected BY
the legislatures, whose representatives
the senators are. Change this represen-
tstiOn to direct representation from
the people by popular election, and you
so far change the original intent OF the
senate's creation that it might as well
be abolished altogether. The present
condition will very likely continue.

The duke of Sutherland has purchased
10000 acres of Florida lands. What has
become of the alien land bill before con-
gress? IL is high time that absentee
landlordism in this country should come
to perpe ual end. America has no de-
sire to become a second Ireland. There
should be a law prohibiting alien and
non-residents from owning land in the
United States.
